    1949 International/Jeep Wrangler Off-Road & Camping Build

    It's been awhile, so lets get current. April 2023 I went to LS Fest West and entered it in the car show portion. It was my 1st time there and nothing super fun. What I should of done was enter into autocross. Maybe next time. There was an portable Dyno that was free to get on. My 280,000+ mile...

    1949 International/Jeep Wrangler Off-Road & Camping Build

    Day 3 Waking up near the megaphone wasn't ideal and definitely wasn't like waking up to the New York Mountains and snow. On the positive side, it was way warmer. We packed up and made our way through the desert to the west railroad crossing. This route dropped us into the beginning of Afton...

    Big Easy - International S1700 Short Bus Build

    I for one, would like to see your progress on this bus. **personal opinion** Overlanding is just a fancy word for camping and enjoying the outdoors.

    Day 2 our first full day. We started off strong waking u to the beautiful snow-covered mountains with nobody in sight. We headed back down the track and jumped back on the Mojave Road. First on the list today is the Rock House. Perfectly place in my opinion. it has 360 views. People are taking...

    Just completed the Mojave Road. This is my third time but first time in the International. We planned to run it in four days, taking our time to see all the stuff we wanted to see. I was joined with Tim & Benita in a 2018 JK and Evie in a 1994 Ford F-150. We met up at a Gas Station in Fort...

    So time is ticking, I have till January 21st to get it back on the road for my trail run at Winter 4x4 Jamboree. I added a class 5 tow hitch (3 inch receiver) and now can tow 21,000 Lb. I know it is overkill but it was only $40. Downside is I know I will drag more now it is back there. I still...

    1949 International/Jeep Wrangler Off-Road & Camping Build

    This bed mount redo is taking me way longer than I thought. I was like 3 days at most. 1 day to build, add the square tubing, another to make the bottom tube mounts and the last day to create the frame brackets. This has taken me over 5 days to complete. I don't know if I am just getting old or...

    1949 International/Jeep Wrangler Off-Road & Camping Build

    So, I finally got around to installing the 6 inch lift for the rear I have had for a while. I bought some Kings 2.5 remote reservoirs from Filthy Motorsports since they were in stock. I'm working at our new space and didn't have much tools but I was able to figure a way to full droop the...
